Don't Forget About Me [Russia x America]

Chapter Two: The Bet

After I walked into Geometry, I took a seat in the back by myself. People wouldn't stop staring at me, I believe it's because they overheard about what happened outside. I honestly could care less. I don't care about my reputation that much at all. Yeah, I know a lot of people do, but I'm different. I don't care about how I look and I don't care what people think about me, if they think I'm a freak, I don't give a single fuck. The teacher has already started the class. I rest my cheek on my hand and look out the window. I really don't want to be in school right now, the day hasn't even started and it's already bad. I hear the door open, and as soon as I look over at the door, it's that stupid American from earlier. I remain calm and I see he's pretty embarrassed. What a dork, he can't even fight back the right way. I sigh and pretend I don't know he's there. The teacher didn't even care, she just ushered him to the back of the room, where I was. Great. I have to sit next to that American, I won't allow it. As soon as he takes a seat next to me, I flash a glare at him. "Mr. Braginsky, can you explain this equation?" I get startled and look at the teacher, she ushered me to the board. I get up and walk to it: - 9 - 12 + 11 - 11. I started to do the work out on the board, and I get - 21. When I turned around, the teacher was smiling. "Great job, Mr. Braginsky!" I nod and walk back to my seat where the American is. I kept looking at the clock. 7:45, only five more minutes of class. That's a relief, I don't know how long I can sit next to this American. I turn my head and see him looking at me, has he been doin that this entire class?! As soon as my eyes meet his, he turns away with a faint blush. I look away. 7:47. I can see people starting to pack up and the teacher is handing out the homework. 7:49. The teacher gets to my table and gives us the homework. I put it away and grab my bag. The bell rings. I stand up and walk to English, and I see that the American walks in a different direction. Thank god, I hope we don't have anymore classes together. As soon as I make it to my class, I see Natalya. She ushers me to sit next to her and I walk over to her. Still emotionless as ever... I hear the  door open again. FUCK! It's the American again, and Natalya goes white. I can sense her anger boiling, I hope she doesn't attack him... That would be really bad. I see him take another seat next to me. Jeez! Doesn't this kid get a clue that I hate him?!! I sigh and raise my hand. "Yes, Ivan?" The teacher asked me. "May I go the bathroom...?" I say in my strong Russian accent. He nods and I see the American ask him the same question. What a little bitch, he's probably going to mock me or talk shit about Natalya. I go in another direction as the American goes.

As soon as I make it to the bathroom, I hear a conversation between the American and another student. "C'mon, Yao! You do it!" I hear the American say. Yao...? He's my neighbor, but I barely talk to him, I can tell he's terrified of me. I hear Yao laugh. 

"Now, now... Why would I ever do it? How dumb can you get, Alfred?! You're the one who hurt Natalya, not me. You need to face the facts and apologize to Ivan!" I can hear laughter again. 

"Like I would ever apologize to him! He's the one who freaked out about his crush being hurt!" She's my sister, idiot... 

"She's his SISTER, Alfred."

"Whatever," 

There was a long pause and I hear Yao sigh. "Hey, I have an idea. Let's make a bet."

"A bet?"

"Yeah, whoever gets Natalya's number first gets to date her." My eyes widen. What the hell?! I can hear Alfred sigh.

"Yao, that won't work... She won't even talk to me. Hm... OH! I know! Let's see who can become friends with Ivan the fastest. Whaddya say?" There was another pause. I can see Yao nodding and Alfred smiling. The bet was made.
